A physically based framework for modeling the organic fractionation of sea spray aerosol from bubble film Langmuir equilibria

The presence of a large fraction of organic matter in primary sea spray aerosol (SSA) can strongly affect its cloud condensation nuclei activity and interactions with marine clouds. Global climate models require new parameterizations of the SSA composition in order to improve the representation...
